You know that feeling you get when someone annoys you so much? Like, Ugh, this person is so annoying!🙄 A family member, a colleague, a flatmate. It’s almost always one of them, because of proximity, for one. It gets frustrating, but I just realised something worse🙂

Remember that time when you were furious with yourself for something you said or did to someone? It got you so pissed you almost couldn’t stand yourself? Then it left you wondering why on earth you did that. Yep. It happend to me last week and all I could think about was giving myself a big old slap to relieve my self-inflicted anger and frustration. But the worse part is I couldn’t do it, so I was stuck with my anger and with myself, who I didn’t want to have anything to do with at that moment. Lol. As if it’s possible to not have anything to do with yourself😂.

It got me thinking. If I can offend and get angry at myself, how much more will a person who isn’t me, offend me? I know my likes and dislikes, so how do I somehow still upset myself sometimes? If I could do that to myself, what about another person doing same to me?

It made me look at offense and conflict differently. The thing is, whenever there’s more than one person, there’s bound to be offenses here and misunderstandings there because people see things differently, and guess the funny part? They have conflict with themselves, too! Talk less of having it with someone else😅. What would be concerning is if there wasn’t any form of misunderstanding between people living or working in the same space, because are y’all living in each others’ heads out here and practising telepathy or something? Unless it’s enabled by the Holy Spirit, because there’s that, too. You never know.😆

Anyway, back to what I was saying–typing, actually⌨️. It’s not uncommon for people working or living together to misunderstand or disagree with each other. All that matters is how we handle these types of situations. So hey, you’re excused if you get on my nerves sometimes. I mean, I get on them myself, too, once in a while. And I probably do the same to you. But then you probably also get on your nerves, too sometimes so let’s all just bear with each other and live in peace, amen?😂❤️
